Assignment:

The purpose of this discussion is to look at messages and assumptions about crime in our own social contexts and to consider how they might inform our own views of crime and criminality. Go on a scavenger hunt in your dwelling (apartment, house, etc) or online and see if you can spot items that present ideas about crime and/or criminality. It could be a book, movie title (yes, it's okay to include one that you've streamed online), news article, clothing item etc. What message does it give about crime and/or criminality?
